Predicting aneurysm growth after endovascular repair
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at CT scans from people who had a standard procedure to fix an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulging, weakened area in the main artery in the belly). The goal is to see if a computer can learn to predict which aneurysms might grow after the procedure, so doctors can better plan follow-up care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You had a standard (not special or custom) endovascular repair for an intact abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulging, weakened area in the main artery in the belly) between January 2015 and December 2025.
- Your aneurysm was at least 50 mm (about 2 inches) wide if you are a woman, or 55 mm (about 2.2 inches) if you are a man, or it was causing symptoms or growing quickly.
- You had a CT scan before the procedure (within 6 months) and another one 1 to 3 months after the procedure, and these scans are available in digital form.
- You have had at least one follow-up CT scan after the one done 1 to 3 months after the procedure.
- You did not have a ruptured aneurysm, an emergency repair, or a previous aortic surgery or stent procedure.

This trial uses artificial intelligence to study CT scans taken before and after aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) to predict long-term outcomes. Participants must have had standard EVAR and detailed CT scans both before and within a year after surgery.
This trial uses artificial intelligence (a computer program) to predict complications after a minimally invasive surgery to fix a bulging blood vessel in the belly (abdominal aortic aneurysm). It may help doctors better understand your recovery.
This study uses your detailed CT scan to create a personalized computer plan for placing a stent inside your enlarged aorta (an abdominal aortic aneurysm). It may help doctors choose the best stent approach for your anatomy during endovascular repair.
This trial looks at adding a protective “fill” during surgery for an aneurysm in the lower part of the aorta, to prevent a specific type of leak called type II. It may help reduce the need for additional follow-up treatments if leaks are less likely to happen.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to develop better ways to predict the risk and progression of two blood vessel conditions: abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulging in the main belly artery) and peripheral artery disease (narrowed arteries in the legs). If you have one of these conditions, researchers want to learn from your data to improve future care.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to better analyze CT scans of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from your heart. If your CT scan shows the aorta is partly cut off or missing in the images, the AI will help measure the parts that are fully visible.
